You are invited to submit any question anonymously (or not) for the Trust to answer. It can be about foundation etiquette, what makes a strong proposal or what are some of the common blunders good nonprofits unwittingly make. There is no telling what our nonprofits wish they knew about foundations or wish foundations knew. Send your question to staffer Phil Anthropy.
November 2009When I submitted a full proposal for a Piper grant, I had to list the percentage of board members who made a personal contribution to the organization and the total amount per year. Don't you think you are discriminating against boards whose members aren't wealthy?
October 2009I know one of the trustees and I wonder if I shouldn't talk to him and get support for my project? People tell me that gives an inside track at a foundation.
